Cellular networks are a central part of today's communication infrastructure. The global roll-
out of 4G long-term evolution is underway, ideally enabling ubiquitous broadband Internet …

This1 paper presents and evaluates a decentralized beamforming design for inter-cell
interference management that is highly recommended in Time Division Duplex (TDD) …

With the 4G cellular networks reaching saturation, the 5G networks have recently attracted
growing attention and research efforts in both academic and industry communities. The 5G …

We consider downlink transmission in a cellular network consisting of multi-antenna base
stations (BSs), single-antenna mobile users, directional antennas each with a vertically …

Multicell coordinated beamforming (CB) can mitigate intercell interference (ICI). However,
existing work on CB focuses on systems that maximize overall throughput. This paper …

The vision of an interference‐free or interference‐exploiting mobile cellular radio system has
attracted lots of research groups. It led to several 3GPP long term evolution coordinated …

In this paper, we propose a series of novel coordination schemes for multi-cell downlink
communication. Starting from full base station (BS) coordination, we first propose a fully …

We introduce a downlink robust optimization problem to minimize an objective function
which is a combination of a cost characterizing the total transmit power at each multiple …

The increasing wireless data traffic demands have driven the need to explore suitable
spectrum regions for meeting the projected requirements. In the light of this, millimeter wave …

Importance of three-dimensional beamforming in 5G wireless networks is due to increasing
density of stations. Alignment of transmitter and receiver beams can lead to substantial …
